Problem Statement and/or Statement of Need (Making the case)
*Use a common frame of reference, mutual area of interest
*Describe an existing condition or situation that needs change, and the effects on people
*Be careful in describing people that you will serve
*Brief case studies may be helpful
![Page 6: Carol Brodie Research & Graduate Studies 209-946-7367 cbrodie@pacific.edu.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062407/56649d995503460f94a83d9c/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
Cautions: *Don’t overstate the problem
*Be descriptive, not prescriptive
*Don’t concentrate on the actual lack of something, concentrate on the consequences
*Avoid negative statements
*Remember “so what?”
*Avoid circular reasoning
![Page 7: Carol Brodie Research & Graduate Studies 209-946-7367 cbrodie@pacific.edu.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062407/56649d995503460f94a83d9c/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
Presentation of the absence of your solution as the problem. Then your solution is offered as the way to solve the problem.
For example, "The problem is that we have no senior center in our community. Building a senior center will solve the problem.“
Better:Seniors in our community suffer from a number of problems, including lack of activity, loneliness and depression. The senior center that we propose would provide them with friendship, physical activity, and a sense of purpose.
